MEST Symposium on Smart Medical Devices
location: in the Berlageroom of Department of Architecture
The Micro-Electronic Systems and Technology Association (MEST) kindly invites you to participate in the Symposium on Smart Medical Devices on October 6, 2010 in the Berlageroom of Department of Architecture.
New technologies
Today’s medical care requires a rapid adoption of new technologies. In particular, we see increasing use of micro-electronics in diagnostics, surgery, implants, pacemakers and other applications. Through micro-electronic systems, it is possible to make tools smaller and more accurate. Therefore, to be informed about new technologies and practical medical applications of Micro- Electronics and Computer Engineering, MEST kindly invites you to participate the Symposium on Smart Medical Devices.
